[lubuntu-devel] change in grep might cause [other] bugs

[Nio Wiklund]

Hi Phill,

Sorry, I think I failed to convey what I meant. If I understand 
correctly, there was a partial fix for this language bug, but it was not 
solved until now, when Mathieu found this new grep behaviour and fixed it.

What I meant is that there may be other bugs, that seem not related at 
all, but that might be caused by the same change in grep.

Best regards
Nio
